History of the client: Valeriana makes blankets of fabric and wool. She works alone because her husband is a construction worker, and her kids are of school age. She lives in the area of Irpavi II in the city of La Paz, where she has her shop. Her objective is to have more capital so she can make more blankets.


This is the fourth time that she is requesting a loan and the second time that she is asking for Kiva's support. Her last loan was paid in full in December, which is why she is requesting a new one. Her history with our institution qualifies her as a 1-rated client, which means she has a good rating with paying back her loans. The amount requested will go towards the purchase of raw material (fabric, wool, and thread).


Her work and previous credits with Impro let her qualify to request another loan. Since she has a lot of experience in this business, the income she makes will let her pay back the loan.
